“Thinking of You” is a music video by Katy Perry that, to me, signifies most of all that she has grown up as an artist. She has come a long way from her bubble gum pop roots of “I Kissed a Girl” and “Ur So Gay”. Thinking of You …

Rihanna has always been very bold throughout her music career but this just puts the icing on the cake. This song shows women can be powerful too, she puts a huge commanding vocal on throughout the whole song. She sells the point she is trying to make with this …

What I first thought when I first heard this song, is this young lady watched the film “The Secret”? Like you know, about the “Law of Attraction”? Based on the lyrics of the song, it seems she is thinking in advance about her future love. She is imagining …

See The Light is the final track on Green Day’s most recent studio release, 21st Century Breakdown. See The Light starts off with the same acoustic guitar pattern which 21st Century Breakdown, the track, started off with but the tempo is a bit faster I believe. Interesting how Song …

The Above and Beyond owned Anjunabeats and Anjunadeep Record Labels have consistently been my favourite publishers of sophisticated trance and progressive house for over ten years now.
How reassuring it is then, when their own output matches the quality of the artists they champion on their compilations.

After I heard the band Young Guns for the first time on an internet radio station about a year ago, they quickly became one of my favorite bands to date. It made me question first of all why exactly I didn’t hear of them before, and also why they don’t …

Linkin Park’s Album Hybrid theory is one of my all time favorite music CD’s. I am an avid Linkin Park fan and have been to three different concerts featuring Linkin Park. All of them were a blast and each outdid the other. For …

I just heard The Chainsmokers’ new song and my initial impression was, “WHAT? This is basically a ripoff of their previous song Closer? How could they be so blatant in self-plagiarism?” I immediately hated it because the first thing that came to my mind in why they became such …

Lupe Fiesco is a conscious rapper who got his start on ‘Touch the Sky’ by Kanye West. Since then he has been compared to Mos Def and Common and declared one of the most talented artists in Rap today. This is probably because Fiesco chooses to stay away from …

A song sang by Westlife, but in my opinion, most likely to have been wrote by their manager, at least he was their manager at the time, Ronan Keating.
